Here’s the deal
'Cause I know you want to talk about it
Here’s the deal
I promised you like a million tomorrows
Here’s the deal
What I can promise is all lied down
Like a bed of wildflowers
And always make the sheets smell like gardenias
Wild at your feet
And I
Nourish you hazily baby, I
I’ve been running on stardust alone for so long
I wouldn’t know what hot fire was
Hot fire
Hot weather
Hot coffee
I’m better with you
It’s strange, but it’s true darling
Not to turn into a wildfire
To light up your night
With only my smile and nothing that burns
Baby I’ll be like a wildflower
I live on sheer willpower
I’ll do my best never to turn
Into something that burns, burns, burns
Light me up ‘cause baby burns, burns, burns
Here’s the deal
‘Cause I know you want to talk about it
Here’s the deal
You say there’s gaps to feeling, so here
Here’s the deal
My father never stepped in when his wife would rage at me
So I ended up awkward but sweet
Later than hospitals, sand still on my feet
Comfortably numb but with lithium came poetry
& Baby I
I’ve been running on star drip IVs for so long
I wouldn’t know how cruel the world was
Hot fire
Hot weather
Hot coffee
I’m better
So I turn
But I learn
Not to turn into a wildfire
To light up your night
With only my smile and nothing that hurts
I'll run like a wildflower
I live on sheer willpower
I promise that nothing will burn you
Nothing will burn, burn, burn
Like me up, baby, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
Like the others, baby, burn, burn, burn
It’s you from whom I learn, learn, learn
It’s you from whom I learn, learn, learn
